Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lock mechanism for a vehicle door latch. More particularly, the present invention relates to a lock mechanism including a superlock function.
  • Known latches are used to releasably secure vehicle doors in a closed position. They are mounted on the door and include a retention plate having an opening which receives the striker, which striker is typically mounted on a fixed structure of the vehicle.
  • a latch bolt in the form of a rotatable claw having a mouth is typically pivotably mounted to the retention plate and is provided with fully latched and first safety abutments against which a pawl also pivotally mounted to the retention plate may engage.
  • the striker enters opening and the mouth of the claw, causing the claw to rotate and the pawl to engage one of the abutments, thereby releasably retaining the claw and maintaining the door in a closed position.
  • Mechanical or electrical linkages are provided from known latches to handles, buttons and the like to control the operation thereof.
  • US-A- 5722272 provides a superlocking function controlled by a motor 66 driving a pivoting lever 64.
  • the lever has an L-shaped slot and can be driven between the positions shown in Fig. 2 in which a pin 62 is located so as to transmit drive from manual locking lever 54 to a link 46, and a superlock position shown in Figs. 5 and 6 in which pivoting of the manual locking lever 54 is unable to move pin 62 as this is located in an arcuate slot portion 60 of the "L”.
  • US-A-6116664 and DE-A-19619849 have similar disclosures.
  • D2 discloses inside and outside release levers 1.11 mounted about the same pivot point as pawl 1.9.
  • the locking function of the latch is controlled by the axial position of coupling member 2.6 relative to stops 1.26A and 1.26B on the release levers 1.11 and a further stop 1.27 on the pawl.
  • the coupling member 2.6 is provided with cut-outs, and its axial position is controlled by either a solenoid 2 or key barrel 2.8.
  • the locked state of the latch may be adjusted.
  • locking is achieved via a freewheel mechanism.
  • the document discloses a gear quadrant 6 acting as a main locking lever, outside locking lever 17 and 18, superlocking link 37 and an inside locking lever 31 and 33 that are mounted on top of each other.
  • the superlock link 37 is shiftable axially by a lever 42 between a non-super locked position shown in Figs. 7, 8 and 9 in which inputs from the sill button 30 are transmitted through to the outside lock lever, and a superlock position as shown in Figs. 10, 11 and 12 in which the superlock link is axially shifted in a direction X to disengage drive from the inside lock lever to the outside lock lever. Therefore, it relates to a freewheel superlocking mechanism.
  • a latch may be:-
  • the state of a particular latch may include one or more of the following modes:-
  • locking, superlocking, and child safety modes all relate to providing a connection between a door handle, or power actuator (e.g. electric motor) driven under the influence of a signal received from an RKE device or door handle, and the pawl in order to move the pawl or breaking any such connection or blocking any such connection so as to prevent movement of the pawl.
  • power actuator e.g. electric motor
  • Car door latches are typically mounted at the rear of a car door which car door is pivotally mounted at a front edge.
  • an inside door handle is mounted on the inside of the door, towards the front edge and therefore a connection needs to be provided connecting the inside door handle with the door latch.
  • a connection needs to be provided connecting the inside door handle with the door latch.
  • different latches require different types of connection and orientation of connection so as to be able to actuate the door latch.
  • the present invention seeks to overcome or at least mitigate the problems of the prior art.
  • one aspect of the present invention provides a lock mechanism according to claim 1.
  • a latch 10 is mounted to a vehicle side passenger door 12 at the intersection of a shut face 14 (at the door trailing edge) and inside face 16 thereof. A portion of the door is cut away to provide an opening 18 spanning the intersection, the opening being capable of receiving a striker (not shown) mounted to a fixed portion of the vehicle such as a door pillar 10 (not shown). A similarly dimensioned opening 20 is also provided in a retention plate 22 of the latch 10.
  • the latch is generally L-shaped in plan view and comprises a first region 10a arranged proximate to the door trailing edge 14 and a second region 10b arranged proximate the door inner face 16, when installed in the door 12.
  • a Claw 24 (also partially visible in Figure 1 ) is pivotally mounted to an inner face of the retention plate 22 in region 10a of the latch by pivot pin 26, and is arranged to receive the striker in a mouth 28 thereof.
  • the claw is shown in a released state.
  • the claw 24 is biased into an open position by resilient means such as a spring (not shown).
  • the claw 24 may be retained by a pawl 30 by engagement of a pawl tooth 32 thereof with either a first safety abutment 34 or fully latched abutment 36 on a periphery of the claw.
  • the pawl 30 is pivotally mounted about a second pivot pin 38 and is resiliently biased by a spring 40 into contact with the claw 24, as is known.
  • a cover plate 42 has been placed on the latch so as to partially obscure claw 24 and totally obscure the pawl 30.
  • the cover plate 42 further shrouds mouth 20 of the retention plate 22 so as to minimise the ingress of dirt etc. into the latch 10 via the mouth.
  • a release link 46 is pivotably connected to a release link connector 45 by a pin 47.
  • Connector 45 extends from a pawl lifter (not shown) which rotates about pin 38.
  • Release link 48 is similarly connected.
  • the pawl lifter and connector 45 rotate together about pin 38.
  • the pawl lifter is biased in a direction B by a spring (not shown). Rotation of the main lock lever 44 in direction B, causes release links 46 and 48 to rotate anti-clockwise in direction D about pin 47 by the action of a cam portion 49 of link 44 to move to a locked position.
  • Links 46 and 48 are biased in a clockwise direction by a spring (not shown) so that when the main lock lever 44 returns to the unlock position, the links 46 and 48 also return to their unlocked position.
  • the latch 10 further comprises a child safety mechanism in the form of a slidable wedge shaped block 50, supported by the retention plate 22 at the intersection between its shut face portion 22a and inside face portion 22b.
  • the mechanism is shown in a child safety off condition in Figure 3 .
  • block 50 is slid to the right as shown in Figure 3
  • the resulting wedging action pivots link 48 in anti-clockwise direction X such that the linkage from the inside handle ISH misses the link 48, if actuated, and thus cannot release the latch, irrespective of the position of lock lever 44.
  • the child safety mechanism may be moved manually by use of a suitable mechanism, but in this embodiment is connected to a power actuator via a suitable linkage, such as arm 52 shown in Figure 3 , as described in greater detail below.
  • Lock lever 44 further comprises a recess formation 54 capable of engagement by a lock link 56 shown in broken lines in Figure 3 and pivotable about an axis that is at substantially 90 degrees to that of lock lever 44. Operation of the lock link 56 is discussed in greater detail below.
  • the lock mechanism 58 according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in more detail when viewed from direction A of Figure 1 . As such, it can be seen that the lock mechanism 58 is located in region 10b of the latch which essentially runs parallel to the inside face 16 of door 12, when installed.
  • the lock link 56 is rotatably mounted on a housing 60 of this portion of the latch and is rotationally fast with a quadrant 62 having gear teeth on its circumferential edge that are engaged with a pinion 64.
  • lock link and quadrant 62 may be formed integrally.
  • Pinion 64 is coaxially pivotally mounted with a worm wheel 66 and has a dog clutch connection 65 therebetween enabling pinion 64 to rotate through slightly less than 180 degrees without rotation of the worm wheel 66 occurring.
  • Worm wheel 66 is in turn driven by a lock power actuator in the form of a DC electric motor 68 via a worm gear 70.
  • the motor 68 is capable of driving the worm wheel 66 in both clockwise and anti-clockwise directions. Operation of the motor is controlled by a controller 25.
  • the term "power actuator” should be understood to encompass any actuator driven from a vehicle power source such as a vehicle battery. Specifically, the term should not be understood to mean an actuator such as a door handle whose power source is a vehicle user.
  • a manual inside lock lever 72 is coaxially mounted with respect to the quadrant 62 and lock link 56 and is rotationally fast with a sill button lever 74 illustrated schematically and provided on the opposite face of housing 60 to that shown.
  • sill button SB illustrated schematically
  • Sill button SB also provides a visual indication of the lock status of the latch 10.
  • the manual inside lock lever 72 is L-shaped, having two arms 72a and 72b. Arm 72a terminates in an angled edge 73. Manual inside lock lever 72 is not rotationally fast with lock link 56 or quadrant 62. However, the extent to which manual inside lock lever 72 may rotate relative to quadrant 64 is restricted in a clockwise direction by a stop 76 that is arranged to be capable of abutting arm 72b.
  • a radially extending trough or slot 78 is provided in quadrant 62 and has a superlock link 80 slidably mounted therein.
  • the superlock link 80 is substantially U-shaped and has two parallel spaced pins 80a and 80b which project out of the plane of quadrant 62, the first of which 80a, limits relative rotation of the manual inside lock lever in an anti-clockwise direction relative to the quadrant 62 by abutting arm 72a.
  • the radial position of superlock link 80 is controlled by a superlock power actuator in the form of DC electric motor 82. Operation of the motor is controlled by controller 25.
  • An arm 84 provides a drive connection between the motor 82 and superlock link 80.
  • the end of arm 84 proximate motor 82 is provided with a gear rack 85 so that it rotation of an output pinion 86 from motor 82 causes the superlock arm 84 to move along its longitudinal axis with the motion being guided by pin 88 secured to housing 60 and slot 90 formed in the superlock arm 84.
  • the pinion 86 is held in contact with the rack 85 by engagement of the output shaft of the motor with guide 87.
  • the end of the arm 84 remote from motor 82 terminates in an arcuate slot 92 arranged to receive the second pin 80b of the superlock link 80.
  • the arcuate shape of slot 92 enables the quadrant 62 and hence the link 80 to pivot with minimal axial movement of arm 84.
  • An abutment formation 94 shown in broken lines in Figure 4 is provided on the inside face of a top cover portion of the latch (not shown) that mates with housing 60 and is positioned at an acute angle relative to slot 78 when quadrant 62 is in the position shown in Figure 4 .
  • Abutment formation 94 is further positioned such that it abuts pin 80b of superlock link 80 when this is in its radially outermost position on slot 78 (see Figure 5 ).
  • Region 10b of the latch further comprises a child safety power actuator in the form of DC electric motor 95 which is capable of driving wedge block 50 ( Fig. 3 ) via worm gear 96, worm wheel 97, arm 98 and arm 52 shown in Figure 3 . Operation of motor 95 is controlled by controller 25. A lug 99 of arm 98 engages a complimentary aperture 53 on arm 52 to transmit the drive.
  • region 10b may also contain switches or other sensors 35 (illustrated schematically) capable of detecting the state of various latch components so that this information may be utilised by the controller 25 for control of the latch functions.
  • the latch 10 may be unlocked by lifting sill button SB, causing manual inside lock lever 72 to take up any lost motion between arm 72a thereof and pin 80a, and then to cause quadrant 62 to rotate anti-clockwise in conjunction with lock link 56.
  • This moves locking lever 44 into an unlocked position and enables the latch to be opened either by actuation of the outside handle OSH or inside handle ISH (unless child safety is on).
  • rotation of quadrant 62 also causes gear 64 to rotate in a clockwise direction. However, due to the dog clutch arrangement, this does not result in back driving of motor 68.
  • the lock mechanism 58 is in the position shown in Figure 6 .
  • the latch may also be power unlocked by unlocking motor 68 in response to, for example, a signal from a remote keyless entry device (not shown).
  • the controller 25 signals the powering of lock motor 68, thus causing pinion 64 to rotate clockwise via worm gear 70 and worm wheel 66, which as with manual unlocking causes the quadrant 62 and lock link 56 to rotate anti-clockwise, resulting locking lever 44 moving to an unlocked position.
  • This anti-clockwise rotation also causes sill button lever 74 to rotate anti-clockwise and lift the sill button due to contact between lug 76 and arm 72b.
  • edge 73 acting as a wedge urges the superlock link 80 radially outwardly against the end of slot 78 and against the abutment surface 94, thus preventing anti-clockwise rotation of quadrant 62, as well as preventing the lifting of sill button SB. Therefore, locking lever 44 remains in its locked position and actuation of either the inside handle or outside handle cannot result in release of the latch.
  • lock link 56 and quadrant 62 are rotated clockwise, either due to operation of the RKE or unlocking via the key resulting in drive from motor 68, lock link 56 drives quadrant 62, and therefore superlock link 80, anti-clockwise, causing pin 80b to contact angled abutment 94. In turn, this causes superlock link 80 to move radially inwards in slot 78. Even if at the start of the operation lever 72 abuts the superlock link 80, the lost motion connection between lever 72 and quadrant 62 means that lever 72 rotates clockwise relative to the quadrant until it abuts lug 76 during anti-clockwise drive of quadrant 62.
  • Lever 72 can rotate anti-clockwise and pin 80b is pushed further to the left by face 94, thereby cancelling superlock.
  • the superlock motor is backdriven.
  • the lock mechanism as described above ensures that the status of the lock as indicated by sill button SB is always the same as the actual status of the lock mechanism 58 of the latch, thus ensuring that there is no doubt in the mind of a vehicle user as to the status of a particular latch on their vehicle.
  • the mechanism may be adapted for use with manually actuable latches in which superlock motor 82 may be replaced by a suitable linkage to a key barrel, for example, mounted on the exterior of a vehicle door to which the latch is fitted, and further by dispensing with lock motor 68 and the associated gears.
  • superlock link comprising, for example, a single pin may be used and the locking mechanism may be adapted so as to be actuated in a linear rather than rotary manner.
  • Alternative means of indicating the locked state of the latch and also changing the status may be used, rather than a sill button.
  • buttons provided proximate the inside handle or the position of the inside handle itself (e.g. pushed inwards from a normal rest position when locked).
  • the abutment surface may be provided on any body that is fixed relative to the lock link and superlock link.
  • the superlock link may be movably mounted on any suitable body that is rotationally fast with the lock link.
